Higher contiguity distance

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce higher analogues of the contiguity distance and its relations with the simplicial Lusternik–Schnirelmann category and discrete topological complexity. We also investigate the effect of barycentric subdivision on higher contiguity distance. Finally, we establish a connection between higher contiguity distance and higher homotopic distance via geometric realisation.
